After-School Tuition Explanation
For the convenience of our families we utilize a stable monthly tuition rate to assist with budgeting. Once the tuition rate is established for the school year the amount is broken down into 10 equal payments. This allows the tuition to not fluctuate between months and enables our families to spread the cost of the tuition evenly throughout the school year. At this time we do not offer a daily or weekly tuition rate.
If you have any questions regarding the tuition structure please contact the 3rd Base Program office.
Summer Camp Tuition Explanation
To provide our families with more flexibility during the summer we offer a weekly tuition rate for the camps. This allows parents to pick which weeks work best for their families individual needs.
Tuition Rates and Registration Fees can be found in our .
Payment Options
The 3rd Base Program accepts electronic payments through Tuition Express. With Tuition Express you can pay either through draft or create an online account. Credit card payments (Visa, MasterCard, or Discover only) can be made over the phone or in person at your student’s after-school campus. Credit or debit payments are the only payments accepted at the campus during program time.
When you provide a check as payment, you authorize the ÁùºÏ±¦µä ISD 3rd Base Program either to use information from your check to make a one-time electronic funds transfer from your account, or to process the payment as a check transaction. When we use information from your check to make an electronic funds transfer, funds may be withdrawn from your account as soon as the same day your payment is received, and you will not receive your canceled check back from your financial institution.
